    Maiden shake down run on Medussa

    I finally got Medussa ('82 1100GK) insured & registered. Took her out today for a couple of shake down runs.

    Boy, has she got power!

    The carbs are a little rough in the 2-3k rpm range though, at part throttle.

    The rear caliper drags. I'll check that out tomorrow. I think I have a spare down in the basement though.

    The battery needs replacing. I expected that. It's the old one from my yamaha. I bought it at Walmart 5 yrs ago.

    The tach drive still weeps. I resealed it, But I guess the gear needs to be replaced.

    That's about it. Not bad for the first time out.

    She handle well, Does interstate great, cruising at 80.

    Oh yea, did I mention that she has plenty of power!
